The Holocaust survivor sharing her story on TikTok – BBC Newsnight
To mark Holocaust Memorial Day, Holocaust survivor Lily Ebert – who was deported to Auschwitz aged 20 – shares her story alongside her great-grandson Dov Forman. Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
As those able to give first hand testimony of the Holocaust dwindle, their stories have become more precious.
Lily Ebert, 98, was 20 years-old when she and her family were taken to Auschwitz aboard one of the last trains to enter the camp in 1944.
Lily survived, but her parents and some of her siblings were murdered.
She shares her story alongside her great-grandson Dov Forman who helped her to set up a TikTok account to educate the younger generation.
January 27 marks Holocaust Memorial Day, where we remember the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust, and the millions of people killed under Nazi persecution of other groups, and in the genocides which followed in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia, and Darfur.

This video contains distressing details.
Violence against women and girls in Iraq is widespread, but under reported, according to UN experts.
For incidents of sexual violence, there are no official figures. Human rights campaigners in the country say more needs to be done to protect women who speak out. They say threats and incitement against survivors should be investigated as crimes.
BBC Arabic’s Sally Nabil has been to Baghdad to speak to women who say family and social pressures discouraged them from speaking out, but have now decided to break their silence.

Floods have hit Australia’s largest city Sydney for the third time this year prompting evacuation warnings to 50,000 people.
Parts of Sydney have received about eight months of rain in four days.
Roads have been cut off, some houses are under water and thousands have been left without power.
Widespread flooding across Australia – driven by a La Niña weather pattern – has killed more than 20 people this year, many in New South Wales.

Saudia Arabia vows ‘serious response’ to Houthi attacks and other stories | Global News Podcast
The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen have continued to fire missiles towards Saudi Arabia, after a number of deadly attacks on Riyadh’s main international airport.
Almost all flights to and from the airport have been suspended. The Houthis say their actions are in retaliation for “brutal Saudi aggression” against areas they control in western Yemen.
Saudi Arabia’s energy minister Prince Abdul Aziz bin Salman told a conference in Riyadh that the seriousness of the attacks required an equally serious response from the Kingdom.

many Holocaust survivors had a stolen childhood. They lived their entire childhood in darkness and uncertainty of whether or not they will live on. I very much felt bad of them but at the same time have deep respect for them.

I’m watching the boy in the striped pjs and I know it’s inaccurate 0:12 but it’s brief this abuse actually happened to Jews by nazis and it hurts it’s so upsetting they were just innocent people and the fact children were treated so horribly and even killed if they couldn’t do work is so upsetting I didn’t take history in school but I wish I did sm because although this was in the past this was very much real and some people still have minds that are racist, ‘nazi like’?? etc I am 0% educated on wars etc and history even of my own country but I’m so fed up with the democides of other people because of greedy people in power and the abuse of people from others because how they look or who they love
That paragraph was probably a mess
